A new life


On the 24th of august my biggest adventure started. I became an exchange student. Nothing seemed still real, when I left from my home in Tuscany (Italy) going to  Florence. There I caught a train and I arrived in Rome, for my last preparation camp. Yeah.. "preparation camp". They maybe think that it´s possible to prepare a 17-year-old teenager for an experience like that.. But I don´t think so!
Nothing is like you thought it would be! Everything has more colours, more life, everything is more new than the newest thing you could have ever imagined. I arrived in Helsinki in a quiet warm day. There were 16 degrees (20 less than Italian temperature that day), but my host-family made me feel welcome since the first moment. Here in my new family I have sisters. I have always wanted to have some, but unfortunately I am an only child! They are simply amazing. We always laugh a lot when we are together. I also got 2 dogs, Elsa and Manta. At first Elsa was only barkling at me, but now we love eachother sooo much!Everything starts getting better and better. Everyday I discover something new, but at the same time I really start feeling AT HOME.
